Business Transactions & Agreements

Contracts and business agreements define every commercial transaction, including those unrelated to a company’s primary transportation business but essential to operation of the business. We provide our clients with legal support for these other business transactions.

Examples of these types of contracts include:

Commercial real estate leases

Corporate documents and consents

Annual minutes

Asset purchase agreements

Vendor and contractor agreements

Lending agreements

Security agreements

Promissory notes

Personal guaranty

Our attorneys review and draft all types of business agreements and contracts for our clients. In many cases, we assist the client from the beginning of a business transaction to define the relationship and finalize the terms in a written agreement. In those situations, we initially work closely with the client to develop a term sheet that includes the rights and obligations of both parties. After we finalize the term sheet with the client, we draft an agreement that includes all those terms.

We frequently negotiate the terms of the contract on behalf of the client. This process ensures that the written agreement carefully defines the business relationship, clearly describes our client’s obligations, and fully protects the client’s legal rights.
